musical instrument in the foyer

James had a piano he had originally bought for his mom years & years ago sitting in a friends garage for a long, long time.  He finally decided it was time to bring it to our garage (ok, the friend said we had to).  Originally he wanted to take an ax to it and use the wood for random projects around the house.  I put a stop to that quickly. 

So, for the past few weekends he has worked hard at refurbishing the wood and giving it a make-over.
I must say, my husband is pretty handy. 

It took a five man crew to roll the piano out of our garage, up the street, around the corner, up our front steps and through our front door. 

 Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'
 Movin' Movin' Movin'
 Almost there.
 The end is in sight.
 The hardest part of the adventure, lifting the piano up the front steps.
Nice job crew!
Gorgeous, love it. 
All I have left to do now is add pretties on top; vases, pictures, etc.
I have the hardest part of the project, don't I ?!!
